2012 R35 GT-R E85 | 93 Octane tuning results @ TopSpeed Motorsports!

Hey guys, I just wanted to drop in and share our results from today. Please enjoy

As most of you have seen from NAGTROC, "mikewads"; has completed his goal of dipping into the 10’s with an HKS LegaMax exhaust and HKS resonated midpipe installed. At the strip, the car ran a 10.98 @ 123mph which was very respectable, however like any enthusiust...we all want MORE!

After consulting with him several times about his goals we set a plan of action and shipped him some go fast goodies! Mike has worked on his own cars for years, and wasn't about to change that now, so all of the installs were done by him in his garage with us for phone support when he needed it. This is the first step toward our goals for the car and we were very excited to see how the 2012 responded to some nice cool corn running through her veins! We were very pleased with the results.

Mod List:
-HKS LegaMax exhaust
-HKS resonated midpipe
-AMS catless downpipes
-Aeromotive 340 fuel pumps
-AMS front mount intercooler
-Cobb Accessport w/ TCM
-AMS MAF sensors
-ID2000 fuel injectors

93oct Results @ 18.5 PSI

We were very pleased with the results and Mike is happy with the car.

Pretty sick, and it doesn't get more legit than an in ground AWD dyno. Out of curiosity, why the ID2000's? I have ID1000's on mine and at 18psi on E85 they are at 73% duty cycle. Room for more I guess?

Benefit to the upgraded FMIC on the factory turbos? Were you seeing a significant pressure drop with the factory piece? That seems to be the only difference in my setup vs. that one (and the 2012 larger intake pipes).

Major props, got to be a fun car!

 

good job guys... but aren't you worried running 21psi on stock turbos? I thought they were out of their efficiency ..how much boost are you seeing @ redline?

 

Good questions Trust.

We went with the ID2000CC injectors because the customer is planning a turbo upgrade in the very short future. The 1000s wouldn't be enough for his final goal and we didn't want to make him redo things.

The pressure drop is for sure less on the aftermarket FMIC. I don't thing (especially on E) that the benefits are outstanding or anything with the stock turbos, but it does help, especially in this south GA heat. Again we were also looking toward the future.

Thanks Vegas

21psi is on the edge of their efficiency, but on E85 you are working with cooler EGTs which allows you to run more boost safer. They make about 15psi at redline which is common if you aren't running actuators.

hope this helps.

Makes sense. I'll be going down the same route soon (turbo kit/trans build), I can't leave a car alone. On my tweaked E85 tune mine peaks right at 20psi, then tapers to 15psi like that car does, nice to see on the graph that it isn't falling off on power up top. Nice work.

 

nice numbers on e85 and a great curve! interesting to see what it runs at the track in its current form now...

 

Wanted to post a couple of videos of the car. I can't wait to take it down the 1/4 mile. I would like to wait until it cools down some (October), but I will probably go before then.
